@jonny I am 100% convinced that this is it right there: "Maybe organizing on the surveillance machine and communicating on the outrage megaphone where every uprising gets liquidated into Content is worse than nothing."
Which is why I always roll my eyes when some claims old Twitter was good for activists. Sure it could create some very impressive bursts of attention for some causes, but I can't think of a single one that actually achieved its real-life goals.
